Among them were 2,500 key health workers and their guests who had received tickets in recognition of their efforts during the pandemic.
While it was all about the glam, we pick the best dressed celebrities at the red carpet of BRITs 2021.
TAYLOR SWIFT
Taylor, who has dropped not one but three albums in the last year including ‘Folklore’, ‘Evermore’ and ‘Fearless (Taylor’s Version)’, impressed everyone with glittery glam two piece set. She styled a mini crop top with a rhinestone embellished skirt. She became the first female artist to be awarded with the Global Icon Award at BRITs. She was dressed in the embellished piece from Miu Miu and had all the heads turning in her direction.
HARRY STYLES
The former One Direction crooner and one of the popular soloists looked charming as ever in a brown, orange and beige checkered suit from Gucci.

OLIVIA RODRIGO
The breakout star of the Olivia Rodrigo looked like a doll in a neon green Christian Dior creation.
